K. S. Birdi

Fractals in Chemistry, Geochemistry, and Biophysics

An Introduction

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this introductory text, Dr. Birdi demonstrates experimental methods and analyses of fractal dimensions in natural processes. In addition to a general overview, he discusses in detail problems in the fields of chemistry, geochemistry, and biophysics. Both students and professionals with a minimum of mathematics or physical science training will learn to find and model shapes and patterns from their own everyday observations.
